Abstract. Roughgarden and Sundararajan recently introduced an alternative measure of efficiency for cost sharing mechanisms. We study cost sharing methods for combinatorial optimiz...
The problem of automatic feature selection/weighting in kernel methods is examined. We work on a formulation that optimizes both the weights of features and the parameters of the ...
A novel connectionist method is proposed to simultaneously use diverse features in an optimal way for pattern classification. Unlike methods of combining multiple classifiers, a m...
This paper presents a dereverberation method based on I-divergence minimization, which is particularly suitable for music signals. Existing dereverberation methods, including one ...
Object-Relational and Object-Oriented DBMSs allow users to invoke time-consuming ("expensive") methods in their queries. When queries containing these expensive methods a...
